Bidat, for whatever reason is remarkably sensitive to electricity, probably it is more sensitive than any other my priced of equipment. What however is ugly is that during different time, during the different problem with electricity the different methods to cure electricity had different impact to Bidat. Sometime sound dies and using a regenerator or balance isolator on Bidat it is possible slightly to reanimate the DAC. Another time no matter what you do it does not help – sure there is not known to me universal solution that does not crap sound and helps all time.

I have no idea why Bidat is so hipper sensitive to electricity. I thought to big up the PS caps and to put there instead 4kuF something like 60kuF -100kuF. I did not do it. Perhaps it would be worth to try…

BTW, my Bidat now entered the day 15 of the Nichicon Syndrome. Now the HF are done completely. It sounds like a gramophone with 5-7kHz max range. Taking about the good sounding digital…. Anyhow the HF should be back in 10-12 days..

Romy,


Very interesting. I agree that the Bidat is sensitive to electricity. BTW, you should know that I run my Bidat directly into my Classe Delta 2200 amp via balanced interconnects. My use of the "digital volume control" may color my impressions of the unit. I assume you run yours through a preamp.
